Here are some tips to get 2021 off to a great so you can get back on track and achieve long-term career objectives

1. The power of small wins
Visualise your primary goal, then break it down into actionable and incremental stages. If your objective is a promotion, take more leadership roles in projects, seek out mentorship, or add a new skill to your CV. As you move towards your target, keep a journal to record successes and failures. Small steps yield big results!
2. Refuel your network
The usual industry summits or “meet & greet” days of professional networking are on pause indefinitely. Try a different strategy to grow your network, including diligently searching virtual events that may add value to your circle. Alumni or specialised associations can be a good starting-point: don’t be hesitant to reach out and ask other professionals questions and be proactive in building new relationships.
